If you are planning to work abroad it is really important to take a few things into consideration when you make a decision. We try to help you think it over.
Make a conscious decision when you choose your destination
- Why would you like to work abroad?
- How long would you like to stay abroad?
- What kind of skills and qualifications do you have?
- What kind of language knowledge do you need? Make sure that you understand the contract which you sign.
- What do you know about the social/economic conditions of the chosen country?
Some useful advice
- Make sure that the job is real and safe.
- Have enough money to survive till you get your first salary. Consider how you pay for the rent, food and travel costs and have enough money for emergency (for example if you don't like the job, if you need to come urgently home etc.).
- Find out the basic legal issues of the chosen country. Be aware of your rights and obligations (for example tax payment, insurance).
- It is extremely important to clarify health insurance issues.
- It is worth knowing whether you need work and residence permit or not.
- It is good to know how safe the country is.
The purpose of EURES is to provide information, advice and recruitment/placement (job-matching) services for the benefit of workers and employers as well as any citizen wishing to benefit from the principle of the free movement of persons.
EURES is much more than the Job Mobility Portal that you are visiting right now. EURES has a human network of more than 700 EURES advisers that are in daily contact with jobseeker and employers across Europe.
In European cross-border regions, EURES has an important role to play in providing information about and helping to solve all sorts of problems related to cross-border commuting that workers and employers may experience.
Set up in 1993, EURES is a co-operation network between the European Commission and the Public Employment Services of the EEA Member States (The EU countries plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) and other partner organisations. Switzerland also takes part in EURES co-operation. The joint resources of the EURES member and partner organisations provide a solid basis for the EURES network to offer high quality services for both workers and employers.
